No Need to Struggle Alone
There are times when each of us needs the care of another person, a Christian, a Stephen Minister! These needs include but are not limited to:
- the hospitalized
- the terminally ill and their families
- people who move into or out of our community
- those grieving a death or serious loss
- the homebound and institutionalized
- prisoners, ex-offenders, and their families
- those with a job crisis
- the aging and elderly
- those with disabilities and their families
- those facing life transitions
- the separated or divorced
- households experiencing birth or adoption
- those in spiritual crisis
Stephen Ministry is a confidential ministry: those receiving care can be sure that their identity and what goes on in the caring relationship will remain private.
"Bear one another's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ." Galatians 6:2
